Monk, with the help of his nurse, now works for the department as a special consultant to solve cases while continuing to cope with his disorder.

In Season 3's "Mr. Monk Takes His Medicine" (S03E09), "Mr. Monk Gets Cabin Fever," (S03E12), Stottlemeyer carries a Beretta 92FS instead of his usual [[Smith & Wesson 3913]].  In "Cabin Fever," both he and Disher use Berettas during the shootout with two Chinese hitmen.

==="Lane & Westen" (Fictional name for Beretta)===
 
 
 
Probably because of legal objections that came after the episode "Mr. Monk and the Very, Very Old Man," subsequent Beretta pistols which appeared in the series were given the fictional name "Lane & Westen," though a few times, these pistols are referred to as Berettas.
 
 
 
In Season 2's "Mr. Monk and the Three Pies" (S02E11), Monk's brother Ambrose ([[John Turturro]]) overhears his neighbor, Pat van Ranken ([[Holt McCallany]]) murder his wife, Rita, by shooting her with a 9mm "Lane & Westen."  Ambrose claims to be able to recognize the gun just by the shot it fired; Adrian is skeptical at first, stating that Lane & Westen doesn't make a 9mm pistol, but Ambrose counters that they did until 1992.  A pistol manufacturer that does not offer a 9mm caliber-weapon is virtually unheard of.
 
 
 
Monk's own police-issue sidearm, as seen in Season 6's "Mr. Monk Is On The Run, Part I" (S06E15) is also a Beretta 92FS described as a Lane & Westen. In "Mr. Monk Is On the Run," John Rollins ([[Scott Glenn]]) frames Monk for murder by shooting Frank Nunn with another Lane & Westen, after replacing the barrel with the barrel from Monk's own gun, then switching them back.  At times, the handgun Monk is seen handling is a [[Beretta 92SB]] as evidenced by the rounded trigger guard.
 
 
 
In Season 7's "Mr. Monk's Other Brother" (S07E10), Adrian's half-brother Jack, Jr. ([[Steve Zahn]]) "borrows" Monk's pistol and uses it to return fire when prison guard Daniel Reese ([[Titus Welliver]]) opens fire on them.

[[Image:MonkRun01.JPG|thumb|none|500px|Adrian Monk ([[Tony Shalhoub]]) removes his "Lane & Westen" from the lockbox in his bedroom. (Episode 6.15, "Mr. Monk Is On The Run, Part I).  Here the handgun is a Beretta 92SB.]]
 
 
 
[[Image:MonkRun09.JPG|thumb|none|500px|Seen in flashback, Sheriff Rollins ([[Scott Glenn]]) disassembles Monk's "Lane & Westen", replacing the barrel with the one from his own identical weapon. (Episode 6.15, "Mr. Monk Is On The Run, Part I).  Here, the handgun is a Beretta 92FS. It would be impossible to frame a person for murder in this way, because even if the barrels were interchangeable, a shot from Rollins's gun would have left a different indenation on the shell casing from the firing pin.]]

==Beretta 92FS Centurion==
 
In Season 2's "Mr. Monk and the Very Very Old Man" (S02E05), Lt. Randy Disher ([[Jason Gray-Stanford]]), in trying to distract Captain Stottlemeyer's wife Karen, shows off his newly issued [[Beretta 92FS Centurion]] sidearm, correctly described as a "Beretta 9mm Centurion."

==Smith & Wesson 3913==
 
 
 
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer ([[Ted Levine]]) carries a [[Smith & Wesson 3913]] as his primary weapon (comically, in "Mr. Monk and the Old Man" (S02E05), he has to hide it whenever his wife comes around, since she is a pacifist and believes that he doesn't go armed (Monk says in "Mr. Monk and the Captain's Marriage" that one time, Karen organized a rally for stronger gun control while Leland was out on a hunting trip)).  The size and dimensions of the pistol, as well as the diameter of the barrel, indicate the model.  Various other cops and criminals use various Smith & Wesson pistols as well.
 
 
 
In the episode "Mr. Monk Can't See A Thing" (S05E04), a blind Monk grabs Stottlemeyer's gun and uses it to shoot Peter Breen, advancing on them with a knife..[[Image:3913.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Smith & Wesson 3913 - 9mm]]

==Smith & Wesson 6906==
 
 
 
In the episode "Mr. Monk's Favorite Show" (S08E01), actress Christine Rapp ([[Elizabeth Perkins]]), the actress Monk is protecting, uses a [[Smith & Wesson 6900 pistol series#Smith & Wesson 6906|Smith & Wesson 6906]] to "defend herself" from Victor Timlinson, an "assailant".

==Walther P38 (Water Pistol)==
 
 
 
In the episode "Mr. Monk Takes His Medicine" (S03E09) Monk uses a water pistol modeled on a [[Walther P38]] in an attempt to bluff Lester Highsmith (Ken Marino) at an industrial park, only, to his embarrassment, to let the barrel drip, revealing its true nature.
 
 
 
In the episode "Mr. Monk is Underwater" (S07E05) Monk borrows a sidearm from Steven Albright ([[Casper Van Dien]]) to test whether a plastic bottle found at a murder scene could be taped around the barrel and used as a silencer.  The gun Albright hands to Monk is a [[Walther P38]], despite the fact that the [[Beretta 92FS]] is the normal sidearm issued to the U.S. Navy.  The Walther was probably used because its long, thin barrel makes it easy for Monk to make the experiment. In the flashback summation at the end of the episode, Commander Whitaker ([[William Atherton]]) shoots and kills Lt. Commander Jason Pierce with a Walther P38 equipped with an improvised suppressor made from a bottle screwed on to the barrel and tightened with surgicaltape.

==Walther PPK/S==
 
In Season 1's "Mr. Monk Takes A Vacation" (S01E10), hotel security chief and cop wannabe Rita Bronwyn ([[Polly Draper]]) carries a [[Walther PPK/S]].
 
 
 
In the Season 6 premiere "Mr. Monk and His Biggest Fan" (S06E01), John Ringel (John Mese) takes Monk and Marci Maven ([[Sarah Silverman]]) hostage with a Walther PPK. He later uses it during a shootout with Stottlemeyer and Disher.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
In Season 7's "Mr. Monk on Wheels," (S07E11) criminal John Kuramoto ([[Alain Uy]]) shoots Monk in his left leg with a Walther PPK/S. Later in the episode, Sarah Longson (Pamela Adlon), his employer, turns on him and uses the same gun to kill him. The first good look at the gun comes at the end when Natalie ([[Traylor Howard]]) chases Sarah out of a bioengineering lab, and she pulls the gun out of her purse.  After a short struggle between Natalie and Sarah, Natalie is able to grab the gun and forces Sarah to surrender (the second time in the series that Natalie ever holds a gun).  She appears not to be very proficient with firearms, as she unintentionally discharges a bullet into Monk's right leg when she turns around, which contradicts the fact that in "Mr. Monk and the Three Julies" (S06E13), she said that her late husband Mitch took her to a firing range all the time, and she even said she knew how to use a gun, implying that Natalie would have had experienced marksmanship.
 
 
 
In the Season 8's "Mr. Monk Is Someone Else," (S08E04) while masquerading as contract killer Frank DePalma, Monk straps what looks like a Walther PPK to his ankle as a backup gun (and then conceals it with his pant leg), though only to fit in with the character.

In the Season Three episode "Mr. Monk and the Election" (S03E15), an arms dealer throws an [[RGD-5 hand grenade]] (erroneously described as being manufactured in Chechnya) through Natalie's window. In a rather comical scene, Monk slo-mo runs and tosses the grenade into the refrigerator... but then reopens the door and places it neatly in an empty compartment of an egg carton, before slamming the door and running away.  Even in slow motion, the grenade takes a ridiculously long time to explode. The plausibility of this scene was later tested and declared "busted" on an episode of ''MythBusters''.
